March 8, 05:20, 57 hours and 20 minutes after the shooting.
Han Tae Kyung.
What are you doing here?
What about you?
I had something to ask Chairman Kwon Jae Yeon.
Leaving the front door open was strange.
But no one was here.
Joint Chiefs of Staff Chairman, Kwon Jae Yeon...
just passed away.
What?
Chairman Kwon Jae Yeon died?
Suicide or murder?
We're confirming as we speak.
I'll call back as soon as I find out.
Are you sure?
I'm sure.
Someone left Chairman Kwon Jae Yeon's house right before I arrived.
Who monitors the CCTV in this building?
Episode 7
The Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff died.
I think someone got to him before we arrived.
How about the original Classified Document?
Did you find it?
With so many police in the vicinity, it will
be impossible to sneak in to the scene.
We have to find out who killed Chairman Kwon Jae Yeon.
I'm from special investigations.
Please show me the CCTV recording from the ninth floor, elevator 8.
What's wrong?
The security company came out for an inspection.
It looks like it malfunctioned.
It just started happening. It looks like it has a virus.
How about previous recordings?
Is it possible to restore?
I'm not sure.
I can't guarantee.
Jaeshin.
How about the recording?
You know the EMP source...
Jaeshin Group.
Did you say it was the weapons research division, Force One?
The place where Hwang Yoon Jae was arrested.
Also the place where the President met someone.
The Jaeshin Hotel... Right?
Why?
Where are you going?
To confirm something.
You can't behave rash like this. You'll be targeted as a suspect.
For now, cooperate with the investigation. Then you'll avoid suspicion.
It's okay.
I don't care whether I become a suspect or not.
Tae Kyung.
I can't think straight ever since my father passed away.
Nothing is ever clear.
I need confirmation.
Even if it's a small clue.
Chairman Kwon Jae Yeon...
died?
Yes.
We're determining if it was a suicide or murder.
There's something you should look for.
Excuse me?
There's a document Chairman Kwon Jae Yeon had in his possession.
Lee Cha Young speaking.
The document Chairman Kwon Jae Yeon had?
Someone...
risked his life to put it together.
We must find it.
Classified Document 98?
Yes.
That's what he said.
What did you find out?
Who was it?
Shin Kyu Jin.
Presidential Chief of Staff.
We have to find him.
I have something to report.
Report later if it's not urgent.
It's regarding Secretary Han Gi Joon.
Secretary... Han Gi Joon?
When you wanted to place him in office...
I opposed you.
He was a theoretically strong economics professor.
But he lacked real life experience.
That's what you had said.
That was one of the reasons.
But the bigger reason was...
the way you two first met.
It bothered me.
The family members of the Secret Service agents who performed today.
Thank you.
Thank you for your work.
I'm Agent Han's father, Han Gi Joon.
I was in Yeonbyun in 1998.
There's something I must tell you.
After that meeting... you met him alone.
And soon after that...
you placed him as Presidential Secretary.
What conversation took place between you two?
You've never spoke of it to anyone.
Even now...
will you tell me what was said?
Secretary Han Gi Joon has already passed on.
Let's not talk about that anymore.
What did you do with Secretary Han Gi Joon?
Dead Chairman Kwon Jae Yeon...
Blue House Senior Political Affairs, Min Hyun Ki.
National Intelligence Director, Byun Tae Hoon.
Chairman Kim Do Jin of Jaeshin Group.
That day...
The people you met at the Jaeshin Hotel suite.
Are you fighting them?
Remember the day Hwang Yoon Jae was arrested?
The President met some people in the suite.
Was Chairman Kim Do Jin of Jaeshin Group there?
Yes.
He was there.
Anything suspicious?
Chairman Kim Do Jin or any others?
Nothing suspicious about the people, but there was something else strange.
What are you talking about?
The security was much tighter than about a year ago.
Especially the hallway near the suite...
It was extremely tight.
There are one of two reasons for high security.
Something to protect or...
a secret to hide.
Politics...
It's advantageous for those in power to oppress.
I don't know when this fight began.
I'm sure you had the power to begin with.
But those people...
turned over information regarding the Yangjinri incident
to the special prosecutions team.
However...
you did not give up.
Despite the risks,
they attempted to assassinate you.
What kind of threat do you pose
for them to attempt to assassinate the President?
The document the special investigation has was fabricated, right?
There is another story to Yangjinri.
Did you try reveal it with Secretary Han?
What's going on?
Did you hear about the special investigation?
They're are searching for the document in Chairman Kwon's home.
Classified Document 98.
They're looking for Secretary Han's document.
We searched other rooms as well.
But there's no such document anywhere.
Officer Lee, let's search the parking lot.
What happened? Did you find it?
We found a receipt.
What are you talking about?
We found a special investigation team's receipt.
Chairman Kwon mailed it via registered mail yesterday afternoon.
To where?
1 Sejong.
The Blue House.
It was addressed to President Lee Dong Hwi.
What you wanted from the Chairman Kwon after lending him a lifeline...
That document...
Wasn't it?
You're right.
The document the Secretary Han had
contains the truth about Yangjinri.
It will bring the real culprits to light.
It's convincing evidence.
From: Kwon Jae Yeon. To: The Blue House, Attn: President Lee Dong Hwi.
Lee Dong Hwi speaking.
Chairman Kwon Jae Yeon sent mail to the Blue House.
He wants it delivered to you directly.
It was sent priority yesterday. You should have it by now.
Alright.
When the truth is revealed,
what will happen to you?
If the special investigation results aren't true,
why don't you explain yourself?
At the least...
you must be connected to the incident somehow, right?
Am I wrong?
Why don't you ignore it all?
I'll take care of everything.
I told you then.
Whatever connection you have to the Yangjinri incident,
I don't care.
This fight stops when one of us stops it.
I'm sure they don't want you to make an issue of it either.
President, you stop.
The assassination attempt.
Kwon Jae Yeon, Ham Bong Soo, and Hwang Yoon Jae were in it together.
Those are the same people who caused the Yangjinri incident.
They conspired against you to cover their tracks.
Let's say that's why they tried to kill you.
Then...
everything will get back to normal.
You'll finish your term in office.
Compromise.
That's politics.
Long ago...
in the name of Falcon...
in Africa, Southeast Asia...
South America...
you have no idea the dirty dealings I was involved in.
I did not...
want to do it anymore.
That's why I held hands with Chairman Kim Do Jin.
I made a wrong choice.
And now...
are you asking me to do the dirty work again?
Several people have died.
I caused all that with my own hands.
And all of that...
I can't let others take the blame.
Then...
Will you give up your regime?
Do you know how much it took for us to get this far?
From: Kwon Jae Yeon.
To: President Lee Dong Hwi.
We're from the special investigation team.
In the midst of the document sent to the President,
there's an important piece of evidence.
Do you have a warrant?
I gave it... all to you.
All for this administration.
I sacrificed everything.
For my sake...
please reconsider.
I...
didn't become the President for your sake.
Was I...
dreaming a different dream?
Are you from the Blue House?
The President said...
he had something to obtain from you.
What is that?
Is it information refuting the Yangjinri incident?
If it is... please hand it over.
Please, I ask you.
That's the only thing that can save the President.
You don't know, do you?
Hand it over... Since you ask...
I'll hand it over.
Classified Document 98.
Report on Yanginri Incident of 1998.
Lee Dong Hwi...
He had blood on his hands from the start.
Tell him to stop acting innocent. We're all the same.
I already sent a copy to the Blue House.
Whether it's the President...
or Chairman Kim Do Jin...
Tell them to die!
Instead...
I should get amnesty.
It's important evidence regarding the assassination attempt.
Step aside.
I told you.
You can't do this without a warrant.
Do I also need a warrant?
The mail Chairman Kwon Jae Yeon sent me.
Give it to me.
Any mail sent to you should be inspected first.
To see if it was poisoned... Give it to me.
From: Kwon Jae Yeon. Special Delivery.
Kim Do Jin speaking.
Is it the document you were looking for?
This...
This isn't the Classified Document.
This is Chairman Kwon's...
suicide note.
I, Kwon Jae Yeon, conspired against the President
along with Ham Bong Soo and Hwang Yoon Jae.
It's all my fault. I can't bare to live when my men lost their lives.
I have what you want.
In twenty minutes,
I'll see you at the Jaeshin Hotel suite.
Do you want to reveal this?
This spells out the President's crime.
The accomplices are the only changes.
Yes.
The President wants to bury himself with the rest.
No way.
This can't go public.
I'll convince the President.
Convince him?
Don't you think we tried?
And...
I won't stand by and take it any longer.
All he did was use me.
And now...
they want to make me out to be the shooter.
So...
just as it's written here...
will you confess everything to special investigations?
Go back!
I'll also convince them.
I'll convince the President as well.
Who do you think you are?
He won't even listen to us.
Do you think he'll listen to you?
I've...
been with the President from the beginning of his political career.
We're beyond a working relationship.
We're political comrades.
He'll listen to me.
Comrades.
Presidential Chief of Staff, Shin Kyu Jin...
Are you that big of a deal?
Weren't you just... Lee Dong Hwi's shadow?
Be careful now.
Why don't you wake up?
Tell the President exactly what I said.
That's the kind of job that suits you.
There's something else that suits me.
It's also about my regime.
I can't give up.
Your regime?
Following Lee Dong Hwi around...
Carrying his bag...
Just because you wrote some of his speeches,
you think you made him President?
We're the ones who placed him...
in the Blue House.
Our money.
Our power.
Our network.
How dare you speak so carelessly?
I sacrificed my all.
Whatever... you did...
it has nothing to do with me.
You're just...
like this.
When he doesn't need you, he'll toss you aside.
You can be bought.
When you're told to bark, you bark.
When you're told to wag your tail, you wag your tail.
You're merely Lee Dong Hwi's dog.
Would you like to see...
what kind of person I am?
The President...
I'll make him give up.
I told you earlier.
Everything is pointless.
Without proof...
or witnesses.
I'm sure he'll give up.
The special investigation team will verify its authenticity.
The document you spoke of...
We'll look into it further.
No.
I'm sure...
someone has it already.
Where to?
To the hotel.
This is the Jaeshin Hotel where the Chinese President and the first lady will stay.
The President and the first lady will stay in the royal suite on the top floor.
The advance unit made up of inspectors were dispatched and
we've guarded against any elements of danger.
Transportation route, emergency exit route...
everything is secured?
Yes.
We worked with the hotel security team.
When the foreign dignitaries visit, consider the safety of the VIP, of course.
Our mistakes can cause diplomatic friction.
Are you familiar with the blueprints?
Yes.
During an event,
the building blueprints serve as the basic road map.
Vents, elevator, bathrooms, emergency exit routes...
All passages are indicated on the blueprint.
Remember that.
You must store all the blueprints in your head.
Don't ever forget.
There are three passage ways to the top floor.
First, the suite elevator where you use a card key.
Another is...
the room service elevator that's connected to the underground parking lot.
Lastly...
employee elevator.
Excuse me.
Please sit down.
Did you say you have what I want?
Are you headed to the suite?
That area isn't open to public.
Perhaps you don't know.
Agent Han Tae Kyung.
Classified Document 98.
So...
What is it you want from me?
This regime...
was built by Lee Dong Hwi and myself.
But...
Lee Dong Hwi's ego...
has ruined everything.
Now...
I want an untouchable...
regime of my own.
Here is the laptop I typed Chairman Kwon Jae Yeon's suicide note.
Take it to the Joint Chiefs of Staff.
Please take care of the record log.
Chairman Kwon Jae Yeon's death should be concluded as a suicide.
That's good for both of us, right?
I don't see a gun.
The document...
They'll go after...
the document.
Classified Document 98.
Is it you?
Did you...
kill my father?
Answer me.
Shoot if you want.
If you're going to shoot...
you'll have to shoot me right here.
I never forget a losing deal.
What?
Can't you shoot?
Right...
A Secret Service agent protects, not kills.
If you're going to aim the barrel,
aim well.
Do you think your father died because of me? No...
It's all because of Lee Dong Hwi.
Stop.
He used your father to do all the dirty work, but Lee Dong Hwi...
What did Lee Dong Hwi do?
He sat back in the Blue House and watched your father die.
He knew how dangerous it was. Lee Dong Hwi's the one who sent him out there.
You...
You've been protecting someone like that all this time.
Stop!
If you want to use a device like this...
you should have that kind of power.
Same goes with Secretary Han Gi Joon.
If he possessed an item he can't handle,
he put himself in danger, of course.
No!
What should we do?
One with the power can be generous.
I'm in a good mood today. Go home.
Now...
can I show you what my real power looks like?
Is everything you told me true?
About Secretary Han Gi Joon's accident...
Also the fire incident nearby.
They were concluded as mere accidents with outside any pressure?
Yes, that's right.
Everyone who died that night...
were found as accomplices in the Yangjinri incident.
Isn't it more than sheer coincidence?
Are you Officer Yoon Bo Won?
Inspector from the National Police Agency.
You need to come with us.
What's this about?
I don't know who you are. Please step aside.
Officer Yoon misused her power as a police officer.
She broke the law.
Do you know Agent Han Tae Kyung?
Yes.
What is your relationship with him?
I'm not sure what you're asking.
Agent Han Tae Kyung.
He's been wanted since March 5th, 2200 hours.
You were transporting Agent Han in your police car.
Did you aid in his escape?
- That's... - Also...
Agent Han stole evidence from the precinct.
Did you assist him?
That was...
to aid an investigation.
Are you saying it is allowable to act illegally during an investigation?
Of course, that was wrong.
There's someone who knows why I did what I had to do.
If you talk to him...
Are you talking about Lieutenant Ko Young Hoon from Accident Investigations?
Yes, that's right.
Young Hoon.
Please sit down.
On March 2nd,
you said Officer Yoon asked you to fabricate an accident report, right?
Yes.
Young Hoon.
Which accident was it?
It was regarding Secretary Han Gi Joon's accident.
It was concluded as an accidental death.
She asked me to change it to hit-and-run.
Young Hoon.
Did she tell you the reason?
She said Agent Han Tae Kyung asked her to.
Agent Han was aware of his father's involvement in the Yangjinri incident.
He wanted to protect his father's reputation.
She asked me to include a document that was not at the scene in the report.
Young Hoon, why are you doing this?
You should stop this!
Officer Yoon Bo Won!
Please sit down.
I didn't. Young Hoon's the one who is lying.
Agent Han Tae Kyung and I never even met before this incident.
How can I ask for such a favor?
You never knew each other before.
Why did you attend Secretary Han Gi Joon's funeral?
You even took time off of work.
It was for the investigation.
Then...
you're saying you never met or knew him before the incident?
Is that it?
I'll report this to the government officers disciplinary committee.
Officer Yoon, you're suspended until further notice.
Let's go.
What will you do?
Yeah, what's up?
Who leaked it?
Sir.
Chairman Kwon's document...
was leaked to the media.
Which one?
Jaeshin Newspapers.
The evidence submitted to the special investigation
has been leaked and is creating waves.
Conscience of Suicidal Joint Chiefs of Staff.
The document has information proving President Lee's involvement.
It's shocking the nation.
The President's public opinion rating is plummeting.
What does the analysis of Chairman Kwon's suicide reveal?
We found records on his laptop.
Log and print records. It's all there.
That confirms he wrote his note in his office.
The investigation points to Chairman Kwon.
But...
Chairman Kwon Jae Yeon committed suicide.
Ultimately...
Kwon Jae Yeon, Hwang Yoon Jae,
Ham Bong Soo...
Does it come down to the...
these three?
Agent Hwnag Yoon Jae's murder.
Officer Yoon Bo Won's shooting incident.
We didn't tie anyone to those incidents.
Public opinion isn't good.
Since the information was leaked,
they're wondering if we're postponing the announcement on purpose.
For now...
we should announce an interim report and transfer the records.
I'm sorry, Officer Yoon.
We can't deal with people like that.
How can a weak link like me do anything?
And...
you know my situation.
Yes.
I know your situation, Young Hoon.
So, you... live that way.
But I...
I won't live like that.
You really don't know?
You'd better stop here.
If you don't, it won't end at suspension.
A country police officer. It doesn't seem special.
But it was something special to me.
I... can't end it this way.
Personal Information
Are you daughter of Kim Ki Bum?
Did you know about the incident?
Did you know over twenty died?
One word please.
Did you know about it?
Please speak.
You look tired.
It won't be an easy choice.
Whatever you decide...
don't falter.
Like that time.
Agent Han Tae Kyung.
If it was you...
You can do it.
The special investigation team on the Presidential assassination attempt
will make an announcement soon.
Doesn't everyone know the results?
We want to know your stance.
Let's hold a Parliamentary Assembly.
Are you speaking of impeachment?
That can't be.
We don't know the guilt of the President on Yangjinri.
Even if he is guilty,
it happened sixteen years ago.
Impeachment only applies to crimes committed while in office.
Didn't you hear special prosecutor Choi Ji Hoon?
The President asked to postpone the announcement several times.
This is clearly interfering with the investigation.
But we should consider it more carefully.
Consider it carefully?
Whether from the ruling party or not,
will anyone oppose impeachment proceedings?
The Republic of Korea has...
abandoned its President.
We should also...
abandon the President.
To save our party.
Breaking news. The ruling and opposing party representatives
submitted the impeachment initiative to Congress.
The Congress received the impeachment initiative.
They'll gather soon to officially initiate the impeachment process.
Hey.
What's wrong with your face?
How about the VIP?
Do you think he's well right now?
Everyone's tense because of impeachment talks.
Where is he now?
What are you doing?
I'd like to meet with the VIP.
What is it?
I have something to tell the VIP.
Go back.
Didn't you hear the news?
I must meet with him.
He's not someone you can meet at your whim.
What's wrong with you?
Yes.
I do know.
That's why I held myself back until now.
I want to ask him.
I knew I had to hold myself back, but...
I must meet him today for sure.
Take him outside.
Yes, sir.
Just for a moment please.
I need to ask him one thing.
I want to hear something about my father.
Just for a moment.
Just a moment.
Will you be okay?
I can stay... No, I'll be fine.
I want to speak with Agent Han alone.
Jaeshin...
I met with Chairman Kim Do Jin.
You knew...
he was the one, right?
He had the document my father tried to protect.
But...
he burned it...
right in front of me.
I couldn't verify what my father was trying to do.
Everything disappeared.
My father...
What kind of man was he?
Ever since my childhood...
it was just the two of us.
We fought at times.
When we were apart for more than a month,
we were family.
More than anyone in this world,
I thought we knew each other very well, but...
He was my father.
I didn't know anything about my father.
What he worried about...
What he struggled over...
I didn't know any of it until the moment he died.
When he was in the accident,
he worried about that document.
He didn't even leave a letter to his son.
What was it that worried him up to his last breath?
Was it really worth it?
Please answer me.
In Yangjinri...
twenty-four people died.
But...
"It wasn't my fault."
"That right."
I was that brazen.
And now I'm a President.
Before Secretary Han Gi Joon told me the truth,
I lived like an idiot.
I couldn't live like that anymore.
I tried to reveal the truth.
However...
one, two...
people kept dying off.
Secretary Han Gi Joon.
Two people who died in the fire.
Colonel Yang Dae Ho.
The bodyguards who protected me.
An innocent... Chungsoodae employee.
Nameless victims from the EMP bomb.
Agent Hwang Yoon Jae who was used by them.
And...
Chief Ham Bong Soo.
People tell me to ignore it.
If not, more will die.
So...
they tell me to become an idiot again.
Is that really the right thing to do?
March 7th.
We'll begin an urgent plenary session.
If I don't back down now,
there will be more victims.
Then, I'll ask myself every time it happens.
Even then...
will I make the same choice?
The answer...
is the same.
I...
will not give up.
The President Lee Dong Hwi...
failed to uphold the nation's law as its leader.
Although I may not be the right person for this position,
He tried to interfere with the special prosecution.
He clearly engaged in criminal activity and interfered with the order of law.
Even if I'm a criminal with blood on my hands...
The President is no longer qualified to oversee the government...
I pledged to keep the constitution and justice of this nation.
I am the President.
I officially submit the Presidential impeachment initiative.
I can't back down.
Until I can do what I set out to do,
I must remain the President of this nation.
Until then...
will you
protect me?
March 8, 20:00, 72 hours after the shooting.
March 8, 20:00, Impeachment Assumed.
Thirty-five Blue House employees have submitted resignations.
Where is your resignation?
Everything started with your father's accident.
You'll find proof if you investigate this further.
Lt. Commander Lee Chul Kyu of the North Korean military.
Are you sure he was executed?
Someone sent me this photo.
The Secret Service and the President are up to something.
Press Conference (The Secret Service Security Plan)
If you use him,
you'll be able to do what you want.
Today's press conference...
there's a special guest.
We must stop it.
